Do you find the quality of the cable to be on the low end? I find that high end cables doesn't seem to stretch as much.... my Sensah seems to "stretch" and the inline helps

I am using the cables that come with it. So maybe a good shimano or jagwire set would help ! I'll get in the stand and have another faff with it.

A while ago I got this one after someone posted a link here - https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804373322850.html

I gotta say, for $18 this saddle is very, very good and clocks in at 126 grams. Has cushioned top layer (thin but works) and the rails are flexy so you have nice plush ride.

My favourite saddle of all time

Have you tried squeezing the levers without the wheels in the frame? If you do this carefully you can adjust the pad gap to get brakes to engage much faster. Just take the wheel out, and squeeze the levers while keeping an eye on the movement of the pads. You will see the pads don't do back as far as they did. Put the wheel back in and see if the pads engage faster. If not, repeat the process... Since I found this method online the braking on my bikes with hydraulic disc brakes has much improved...

Well this was a success, though my ham-fisted initial attempts were a fiasco. My nearest and dearest are all covered in hydraulic oil and there is an oil slick in the garden but hey ho.

Lever feel is much improved, though i think my rotors and or pads are contaminated as stopping power is pretty mediocre. I've given everything a good clean so will see if there is an improvement, if not ill get some better pads in. 

I purchased a gr9 aluminium set to go on my old cross bike, stupidly I didn't realise that the callipers are indeed flat mount and not post. Instead of buying weird adapters I have paired the ltwoo brifters with shimano SLX callipers. This combination works excellently and I'm super happy with the outcome.

Because i used the SLX callipers I had a spare set of ltwoo gr9 callipers lying around. I decided to also give my roadbike the hydraulic upgrade also and picked up some 105 r7020 brifters. Unfortunately this combination doesn't seem to work aswell as the former. The lever throw on the 105 brifters is long and has no free stroke adjustment. I understand that the shimano 105 road callipers have pad adjustment mechanisms that maybe the ltwoo lacks?. I'll probably try a re bleed first but any advice would be useful!

Have any one shortened or changed hoses on the m2s?
What spares will fit (olive and insert)? Does it use shimano style ones?

I have no hard evidence but I bet they will be Shimano bh90 standard.

It depends on your butt I think... I started with the cheaper bulkier red chamois like you can find in the cheaper rion bibs. But the front of the bibs was too high, so I ordered other bibs with the thinner and more expensive chamois.
I had my mom adjust the front of the cheap bibs and switched to them after the chamois of the more expensive bib began to become loose.

Now I really like the cheaper ones better. I wear them on 5+ hour ride and no saddle pain...

But DO NOT buy those cheap multicolored chamois. Those are crap!

Those multicoloured things are a serious insult to ones derrière. Interestingly i run both my bikes with one those aliexpress carbon saddles with minimal padding, i find they are at one with my ass also.

That windvest looks nice

They have two versions, purely a summer windvest and this one which is fleecey and perfect for spring autumn. I've been wearing it nonstop for the past few weeks with a long sleeve jersey
